IDEA
Analyse the unique construction methods in Siwa and problems of building with karsheef (raw blocks of crystalysed salty mud). To prevent the decay of structures caused by capilar water rising up, propose to build a ventilated layer over foundations to let the water evaporate before it reaches the walls. Finally, present different roof constructions to reach longer spans using palmtree wood.

Design a studio based on contrast of shapes – an optimised outer shell in cubic form compared to soft, organic curves inside, which represent the artist´s free spirit.

I am curious, enjoy good food and views. I have been studying architecture and it is safe to say, it has changed my life. I hope you will enjoy reading about my adventures as much as I enjoyed them documenting! However, I am not an English native speaker, so I appologise for any mistakes in advance.
